Not going to lie, never watch Parks and Rec, because I don't do well with awkward humor. Couldn't watch the office, I cringed too hard. But, I absolutely watch The Parks and Rec blooper reel on YouTube whenever I'm feeling particularly bummed

The main difference is that in Hearthstone, the only way to get cards is through buying packs, breaking down cards, etc. With Yugioh, Pokemon, and MtG, if there's a card you really want, you can trade for it or buy it outright. You don't need to keep buying packs (grind).

Yeah it was so sudden and unexpected. Apparently, when Fieldy and LobosJr had gone to LA to visit her family and get wedding preparations done, he had cheated on her with BloodyFaster. Now he's dating BloodyFaster and I just can't watch him anymore.

The Etrian Odyssey series on the DS/3DS is an RPG where you dungeon dive into a massive labyrinth. You have to make your way through the dungeon with a grid sheet on the bottom screen where you map everything out. Walls, treasure, enemies, traps, etc. can be marked, making future travel through that area much easier. It's a fun series that harkens back to old-school dungeon crawlers.

If your daughter is into anime, I might suggest Sailor Moon. When I was younger and LGBT content was scarce/non-existent, I was completely obsessed with this anime because of the two lesbian characters in it (Haruka and Michiru). It made me feel good to see homosexual characters be portrayed in such a positive way. Their relationship does have some sexual innuendos , so it might be more suitable to watch in a few years.

He's not referring to spite. He's talking about all the extra attention Fortnite got because of the lawsuit. Plenty of people in those other threads talking about how they had never even heard of the game until then.

I thought the "I-am-one-with-the-Force the-Force-is-with-me" prayer was really lame / poorly done. Donnie Yen was saying it just a tad too fast and without inflection, which made it sound insincere and as if he was practicing a tongue-twister. Overall I didn't really like him in the movie, but I will say that his first fight scene was butt-clenchingly badass.

Just thought of this: I think there was an interesting parallel between Saw Gerrera and Darth Vader, somewhat blatantly nodded at with their use of breathing devices. Both of them are considered extremist leaders in their own way.

That style of chanting is common in Buddhism and is used as a way to clear your mind. In some types of Japanese Buddhism, the chanting is very monotone and is repeated over and over, sometimes for hours. This helps the chanter to achieve clarity and to open their mind. It's very different from prayer. As Jediism is partially based on Buddhist ideals, I figure chanting serves a similar purpose for them.

The problem with this is that if your current rate is low and you get moved to another department, your rate basically freezes; it can neither go up or down. Once (or if) you get moved back to your regular department, you have to try and make your rate back. If you don't return to your department before the week ends, then you're screwed.

In Japanese, it's called tororo zarusoba. It's basically regular, cold soba noodles served with a side of grated nagaimo, or mountain yam. It can have a slimy texture, but it adds good flavor to the dipping sauce.

For other topping options, you can add crunchy tempura bits for tanuki soba, slices of fried tofu for kitsune soba, or pieces of tempura.

You should check out all the other classes. I remember trying them all out during beta and realizing just how different the game feels depending on which class you're playing. So if you're feeling bored, you can try out a class you wouldn't even consider playing. You might end up surprised at how fun it is. And there's still elite specs to look forward to!

There was a huge WvW update that added reward tracks, tweaked stability, and introduced server pairings. For most people, WvW has never been as busy as it has been since reset last Friday. It may be the server you're on or the time of day you've been playing, but if you hop on this weekend, you should see plenty of people.

I would imagine that one the weekends it should be busier, is it really busier though? At the moment when I tried it yesterday, it was deader than a door nob.

Edge of the Mists was fairly active, but I honestly don't like the set up of it.

As for the resets, how often do they happen, and what caused it to die down due to the reset. I could also imagine that the server pairing could cause this as well. The server pairing changes at a weekly basis, or is it monthly? I forgot.

Thursday is going to be the slowest day since it's the last day before reset. Important objectives are going to be fully upgraded and difficult to capture, so most groups will hit the easier targets.

Reset occurs every Friday at 10pm PST. This will be the big day for most people to hop on WvW. Not sure on EU servers, but for NA, almost every server had full map queues for every map last reset. The weekend will be very busy as well, so expect more queues.

"Ue o Muite Arukou" was a really popular song in Japan in the 60's. It was translated into English and a few other languages under the easier to pronounce title, "Sukiyaki." https://youtu.be/C35DrtPlUbc
